Just made my first terrarium! Also general terrarium thread
>>2358907
That's not a Terrarium.
That's a jar with dirt and random shit thrown in.
>>2358966
let's see yours then.
>>2358966
>that's a jar
What do you think the first terrarium was, precisely?
>>2358968
ok
>>2358970
Certainly not small shitty jars with random shit thrown in.
>>2358978
>shitty
small mason jar is best jar
>>2358978
Except it was just a glass jar with random shit thrown it.
>It was some time around 1829 when, pursuing his interest in entomology, Ward saved the pupa of a moth in a 'Natural environment' in a sealed jar. History does not clearly record the fate of the moth, but after some time he noticed that a fern and some grass had started to develop in the soil at the base of the jar. His curiosity for how long the ferns could survive in this sheltered environment led to one of the most important botanic/economic discoveries of the Victorian age, the Wardian Case.

>Wardian Case
>Terrarium
>The same thing
kys lad.
>>2358980
Here got a nice "Aquarium" for you too poorfag.
>>2358985
>The Wardian case was an early type of sealed protective container for plants, an early version of the terrarium.
You know, you can always just admit being wrong. Nobody will judge.
>>2358985
>Keeping fish is the same as keeping clover

>>2359024

>>2359026

>>2359030
>I was wrong
>Time to resort to lolitrolu
stay classy nu-male daily reminder THE FIRST TERRARIUM EVER was a jar of shit and moth remains ward forgot about until it sprouted
what have I created... this thread is the least wholesome
>>2359036
Sperglords on /an/ need to brag about their glass boxes because they don't get anything else out of the monetary investment.
>>2359038
I literally just wanted to show mine, and see more for future ideas kek
I had a moss terrarium, but the water I was using turned them brown. also mold started to grow. Very sad!
This is where I kept my ghost mantis. Literally big mason jars with moss and burlap across the lid.
>>2358907
Add some clover to your jar. It's one of the better looking weeds and fits smaller terrariums pretty well.
>>2359403
Terrarrium

Not a Terrarium
>>2359038
>I'm poor ;_;
>>2359448
>waiting a day to frogpost so you can have le last word
how autistic are you? be honest, anon
>>2359449
Do not reply to me peasant.
>>2359036
Sorry op your terrarium is cool I have a few glass lanterns with succulents that I've had for about two years and love them.
Seriously though I hate /an/ it's filled with dorks who get worked up over the most retarded things. Every thread on here now is a "I hate people who keep Bettas in cups and declaw cats" kind of thread. Sure those things are bad but we don't need every thread with that retoric. Just end this board already if that's all it's going to be.
>>2359513
bless you anon.
I remember when /an/ was good. I think I might do air plants or succulents next. most likely succulents cause they look neat
>>2359509
(You)
>>2359403
That's a vivarium not a terrarium asshole
>>2359743
It's most definitely a terrarium
Your retarted buddy. There is a snake in that

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vivarium
>There are various forms of vivarium, including:
Aquarium, simulating a water habitat; for instance a river, lake or sea; but only the submerged area of these natural habitats. Plants in the water will use some nitrogen present within the system, and will provide areas for organisms to hide and forage.
Insectarium, containing insects, arachnids, and other similar arthropods.
Formicarium, with species of ants.
Terrarium, simulating a dry habitat, for instance desert or savannah. A terrarium can also be formed to create a temperate woodland habitat, and even a jungle-like habitat. This can be created with pebbles, leaf litter and soil. By misting the terrarium, a natural water cycle occurs within the environment by condensation forming on the lid causing precipitation. Many kinds of plants are suitable for these habitats, including bromeliads, African violets and Crassulaceae. Animals commonly held for observation include reptiles, amphibians, insects, spiders, scorpions and small birds.
Paludarium, a semi-aquatic enclosure simulating a rain forest, swamp or other wetland environment. It also can be seen as an aquarium interconnected with a terrarium, having both the underwater area as well as the shore.
Penguinarium, containing penguins.
Riparium, a new kind of planted aquarium system that recreates the wet habitats found along the edges of lakes, rivers, ponds and streams. This zone hosts marginal plants, which are rooted in the saturated soil at the edge of the water, but hold their leaves up in the air. Unlike a paludarium however, ripariums do not have a significant land portion, making them unsuitable for most amphibians. Instead, they utilize specialized planters which either hang onto the sides of the tank or float on the water's surface.
I bet you think tortoises aren't turtles too
>>2359757
are vivariums not allowed?
What type of carnivorous plants could I expect to survive in a misted viv? I wanted a mix of nepenthes and tropical sundews.
>>2359745
THE GOOD SHIT
>>2359757
It's ok to be wrong, friend :^)
this is neat. how does one start one?
>>2359783
That autist keeps on spamming his "objective" definitions because he can't handle not having le last word.
It's kinda sad, and funny at the same time. Glad he got BTFO'd.
>>2358978
How do you get the dirt to run up the side of the glass?
>>2359757
Sweet fictional Jesus, man, cut back on the roids.
You are obviously the same belligerent autist that has been shitting up the threads on /an/ all day with your ridiculous nitpicking.
What the fuck do you possibly get out of it?
